The
workshop is the 11th in the sequence of annual workshops traditionally
held in the month of May at Nipissing University. This year, the main
themes will be continuum theory, dynamical systems, large-scale and geometric topology.

Structure of workshops

The
workshops will be held for five days. There will be four
one-hour talks each day. Some of the speakers will give a series of
lectures and some may give only one lecture. However, the format of the
workshops is designed to maximize the interaction among the
participants beyond the lectures.

The main
workshop accommodation is the Nipissing University residence Governors House. The residences
are in apartment style. Each apartment has four single bedrooms, each
with single bed, dresser, desk and closet. The kitchen/dining area is
equipped with a fridge and stove. Each apartment has two bathrooms with
showers. Bed linens, towels, face cloth and soap are provided. We
recommend that you bring your own shampoo, hair dryer, and alarm clock.
All units are air conditioned. The residence building has a
coin-operated laundry on each floor, pay phones and a lounge area with
TV. There are a limited number of special needs rooms available.
Internet access is available throughout the building without any log-in
id and password requirement.

Parking is free at
the Governors House. If you are driving to the main building, park at
Lot 1 (see the Campus map, Lot 1 is the largest
in the group of three lots off of South Access Road). Parking is free
but restricted to Lot 1. After parking your car, walk towards
